The Importance of Having Quality Anchors and Chains in Marine Vessels
September 9th, 2019Marine engineering articles talk a lot about propulsion technology. Diesel engine systems receive plenty of coverage, as do the backup powerplants that keep ship-wide electrical equipment live. Environmental concerns are also important, so onboard ballast treatment solutions are often discussed as well. What’s perhaps not mentioned often is stopping power. At the end of the […]
Using Quality Yanmar Original Spare Parts Can Help Reduce Operational Costs
August 20th, 2019There’s no shortage of short-sighted attitudes in the engineering sector. Sure, quality assurance programs create a better breed of engineer, but that fact provides cold comfort out on a working equipment site. Out here, opportunistic machine maintenance workers look for untenable shortcuts, which just might include a low-quality spare part. Well, Yanmar systems engineers have […]
Supplier of Navigation and Communication Equipment, and Spares for Shipping Companies in Australia
August 5th, 2019The navigation and communications suite onboard an ocean-going vessel will perform well throughout its journey. Crisp radio channels allow for long ship-to-shore dialogues, so a chain of command is maintained. Meanwhile, a seafaring ship’s helmsman checks his magnetic compass and Radar panel periodically to make sure the craft isn’t drifting off course. However, even with […]
The Purposes of Ballast Water Treatment Systems in Ships
July 16th, 2019Aquatic life forms pass the day by swimming lazily in light currents. It’s the same for ocean living plants, which grow happily between submerged rocks. Even tiny plankton colonies, almost invisible to the naked eye, survive in warm or cold waters all around the globe. Then something comes to scoop these species up and carry […]
Differences Between Oil-Lubricated and Water-Lubricated Stern Tube Bearings
July 5th, 2019Without wishing to state the obvious, water-lubricated stern tubes use H2O as a shaft lubrication fluid. For oil-lubricated solutions, a greasy fluid provides a slippery shaft greasing feature. These are the clear-cut differences, as plainly assigned by their technical labels. So far so good, the principal difference is right there, right in the fluid medium. […]
